It was completely ridiculous - and unnecessary. As time has proved.0

Just because you have an abnormal useage pattern does not demolish the system. A £20-odd increase in November is not excessive. You are clearly spending a ridiculous amount of money you need not. That is your choice. And you can contact the supplier to argue this. It's up to the OP to provide such evidence to their supplier if they are as abnormal as you.
What on earth are you talking about?Who's abnormal?
Seriously - do you talk to other people like this? How rude - just becuase someone has pulled you up on what you've said. Is that what you do? Turn it personal. Rather childish :rolleyes:
Anyway what are you talking about with the £20 increase? Who's got a £20 increase? Are you even reading the thread?
Kim - just because you're having a bad day, don't take it out on me. Pick on someone else - because I'll just sling it right back at you.
The OP thinks that the increase from Eon is ridiculous. I agree with them. Eon tried to do the same thing to me last year. They don't know their harris from their elbow half the time and their customer services are simply contact centre staff who read off scripts. The OP will know about their consumption than anyone else - who are you to doubt their opinon?"One day I realised that when you are lying in your grave, it's no good saying, "I was too shy, too frightened."
Because by then you've blown your chances. That's it."0 -

What are you talking about? I think I made it quite clear who had an abnormal consumption pattern.
So you're ignorant as well as abnormal. Nobody is being rude or personal. I use both words in their formal sense and not abusively. You're the one having the bad day. Don't moan at me because of your poor literacy.
Did you even read the thread? Can you really not fathom where the £20 (approximation) comes from? More ignorance.
It ain't sticking. Pick a fight with someone else if you're feeling bored.
I do not agree with the OP. If it is so obvious then they would also know that pertinent data is missing from their op. Plenty of people post here who have very little idea about their consumption.0 -

In the 8 months since March Sapmac has paid £1120 to EON and is only in credit by £67 meaning £131.625 of energy has been used per month. Typically over the winter gas consumption can easily go up by a factor of 2-3 or more, elec nowhere near as much, therefore EON putting it up to £210 does not seem unreasonable depending on the split between gas and elec to acheive a zero balance in 4 months time.IT Consultant in the utilities industry specialising in the retail electricity market.

Sticks and stones and all that. You can try and chuck an illiteracy or an ignorance insult at me as much as you like - I'm laughing in your face in case you didn't realise :rolleyes: Is that the best you can do?
So you've answered my earlier question then......if someone pulls you up on what you've said, then you just retort back with a personal and insulting diatribe because that's all there is. Pathetic.
How sad."One day I realised that when you are lying in your grave, it's no good saying, "I was too shy, too frightened."

A "Pay as you use" tariff is surely the answer to anyone who disagrees/dislikes a budget scheme.0 -

Definite signs of encephalopathy there. It is you who started the ridiculousness. I replied to your posts neutrally. It is you who commenced with the sticks and stones. Sheesh. Some people.0 -
If that is you replying to a post "neutrally" then I suggest you get yourself back to school or onto some sort of communications course to relearn how to speak to people appropriately. You come across terribly. You also come across as very aggressive which in turn doesn't throw you in a very positive light.
If that wasn't your intention, then perhaps a little reread of your recent posts may help?
Don't worry lovey. We'll get there in the end. Obvously the season of good will hasn't rubbed off on you quite yet (never mind - perhaps you'll get lucky towards the end of the week and we'll see a more chilled, satisfied you coming out the other side?)"One day I realised that when you are lying in your grave, it's no good saying, "I was too shy, too frightened."

And maybe you could read the other posts and take the AGM of the Pot and kettle club elsewhere:rolleyes:Vuja De - the feeling you'll be here later0
